In order to enable an iCal export link, your account needs to have an API key created. This key enables other applications to access data from within Indico even when you are neither using nor logged into the Indico system yourself with the link provided. Once created, you can manage your key at any time by going to 'My Profile' and looking under the tab entitled 'HTTP API'. Further information about HTTP API keys can be found in the Indico documentation.

I have read and understood the above.

Additionally to having an API key associated with your account, exporting private event information requires the usage of a persistent signature. This enables API URLs which do not expire after a few minutes so while the setting is active, anyone in possession of the link provided can access the information. Due to this, it is extremely important that you keep these links private and for your use only. If you think someone else may have acquired access to a link using this key in the future, you must immediately create a new key pair on the 'My Profile' page under the 'HTTP API' and update the iCalendar links afterwards.

Directions to and inside CERN

from COINTRIN, GENEVA AIRPORT to CERN

A free CERN shuttle service operates from the airport to CERN (except Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays). More information, including the times that the shuttle leaves the airport, can be found at the following link:

http://smb-dep.web.cern.ch/en/ShuttleService/Circuit4
* Please note that to get to the CERN shuttle stop you walk out of the arrivals area and walk straight to the exit in front of you. Once outside you cross the road where the taxis are and also past the lifts of the exterior car park. The shuttle stop is beyond this, either on the left or right depending where the driver can find a space to stop.
As any person must be in possession of a card issued by CERN certifying that he is authorised to enter the site, the drivers will ask the passengers at the airport to show their CERN access card. In case they do not have it, they will be dropped off at the CERN reception (building 33) to pick up the access card as mentioned above.
If you take the public transport, remember that you can get a free pass from the machine located in the baggage collection area, just in front of the doors near the customs declaration.

Different options:
Bus Y
Bus 23/28/57 until Blandonnet then Tram 18
More details on the schedule available under the link: http://www.tpg.ch

The taxis from the airport will cost approximately 35 CHF

from CORNAVIN TRAIN STATION (downtown Geneva) to CERN

From Cornavin (the stop is to the right of the station as you walk out, on a covered road), you can take the 18 tram, direction CERN. Ticket "Tout Geneve" costs 3chf and allows you to ride the transportation services (including changes) during 1h. The tickets can be purchased at the machine at the tram and bus stops. Credit cards are accepted.
Taxi from the train station to CERN will cost approximately 45chf

To get to Geneva from the airport you can take the train from the airport to Geneva Cornavin station. The trip takes some 10 minutes.
Please check the Geneva Public Transportation Service for more details.

In Geneva, hotels must provide free weekly tickets for the Geneva transportation system to their clients. Do not forget to ask for it at the hotel reception.

TO ENTER CERN SITE

If you have a room at the hostel and arrive during the week-end or outside working hours, the guard will let you through (your name will be on a list for the event) to take your hostel key from the hostel reception which is open every day until 1 am. After 1am, the guards at entrance B will have your room key, hostel building number (38, 39 or 41) and room number.

On the first working day after your arrival please come to the TH secretariat (4 2-004) and register to get the CERN access card.

If you are in a hotel downtown Geneva, please enter through the CERN reception (building 33), mentioning that you are an attendee of the event.

For a more detailed map of CERN, you may introduce building numbers on the menu entry "Buildings and roads" at the left of the CERN web page (In the "Practical Info" items in the menu). Hostel buildings are numbers 38, 39, 41 reception is 33, main auditorium is 500, restaurant is building 501, and the TH secretariat is in building 4 (room 4-2-004)
